    Back in college, I parked mine closeish to downtown and campus. I was running late and going to miss the bus for an away lacrosse game. Normally I’d walk or skate but I knew I was going to miss the bus if I did, so I booked it on the bike, barely making it on time. I parked it in the closest bike rack with a U Lock and when I came back into town 3 days later someone kicked the shit out of it. The wheels were destroyed, but the frame was salvageable. It was either a thief that was angry they couldn’t get past the lock, or just some drunk idiot who thought it’d be funny to kick a bike. People suck… I had to spend a hundred bucks or so that I didn’t have on new wheels.
